ZTE exclusively demos LTE-A CoMP-based services

Mobile World Congress 2011, SHENZHEN, CHINA: ZTE Corp. has demonstrated video call, video streaming and ftp services based on LTE-A CoMP (Coordinated Multipoint) technology at the Mobile World Congress 2011 in Barcelona, Spain, which makes ZTE the first and only telecoms vendor to demonstrate LTE-A CoMP-based services in the world.

During the demonstration, the system achieved downstream peak speed of over 1Gbps, enabling participants to become the first to experience the blazing fast speeds offered by fourth generation wireless communications technologies. ZTE also unveiled plans to introduce commercial LTE-A products in 2012, to meet the growing need for high-speed data communication.

ZTE’s LTE-A CoMP prototype incorporates a number of key technologies such as multi-antenna enhancement, MU-MIMO, and multi-point joint coordinated transmission. Through the use of CoMP technology in the solution, throughput on the edge is dramatically increased.

In recent years, ZTE has accumulated technologies in the LTE-related core areas. For example, in the research of standards, as of November 30, 2010, ZTE held 235 ETSI essential patents (EPs), accounting for 7 percent of the total number of EPs for LTE that had already been declared, showing that ZTE has entered the “Tier-1 Camp” in terms of EPs for the 4G standards. To date, ZTE has contributed about 550 proposals to the 3GPP RAN Working Group in the LTE-A field.
